THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ACCURACY

IN TECHNICAL DRAFTING:
EFFECTS OF PRECISE DRAWING

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Accuracy is one of the backbones in acquiring successful and quality drawing. It is
paramount to various fields such as engineering, architecture and senior high school TVL-
strands. The word accuracy was first attested in 1660s. And Ugur (2021) stated that technical
drawing was said to be first used by the Egyptian in 30 BC. And if we look at modern history,
Artist and architect Filippo Brunelleschi (1377-1446) began to use elements of technical drawing
in his works in 1425.

Accuracy plays a crucial role in technical drawing as it is a requirement in order for students to
get higher score and grades and for professionals it is one of the main requirements for them to
fully create a successful and efficient projects. It can also affect the cost of the project and the
difficulties when the project is in progress to be made.

Moreover, there are many uncertainty when the precision and accuracy is not implemented on
the drawing. It can cause difficulties in communicating. It can cause difficulties when
professionals view your drawing and the overall visualisation of the drawing. It can also cause
the students to get lower scores possibly leading to failure in their major subjects.

The purpose of this study is to know how significant it is for the Students and Teachers of
Baliwasan Senior High School Stand-Alone to implement accuracy in their technical drawings
and to know how inaccurate and imprecise drawings can take a toll in their performance as the
Student of TVL-Technical Drafting in Baliwasan Senior High School Stand-Alone.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This research study aims to identify the level of significance of accuracy in technical drafting
among TVL-Technical Drafting Students. The primary problem addressed in this study is the
lack of understanding and recognition of the significance of accuracy in technical drafting.
Specifically it seeks to answer the following questions:

I.I What is the significance of accuracy in technical drafting?

I.II What are the benefits of precise drawing in technical drafting?

I.III What are the strategies, methods, and tools that can be employed to improve accuracy in
technical drafting?

HYPOTHESIS
The researchers are guided with the following hypotheses:

I.I Improved accuracy in technical drawing enhances communication and reduces errors.

I.II Accuracy in technical drawing contributes to cost and time efficiency.

I.III Accurate technical drawing ensures safety and regulatory compliance.
